Gluten-Free Sweet Potato Pie

This Holiday Season (2020) is very different in many ways but I have continued to push forth the envelope in my cooking skills. For this year’s Thanksgiving feast, I prepared a Gluten-Free Sweet Potato Pie and used the NuWave Air Fryer to bake my Sweet Potato Yams. The Fall Leaf toppers on the Sweet Potato Pie are also Gluten-Free. The Sweet Potatoes are baked beautifully with gushing caramelized juices from the sides of these root vegetables. From this point forward, this food blog will incorporate more Gluten-Free friendly meals.

Brunch All day @Blaqhausnoho From Bottomless Mimosas to a White & Red Wine Sangria

The Sangria was an iconic drink for me, a beautiful balance between the sweetness of the white wine and the tanginess from the red wine and tart fruit.

Shrimp & Grits, To Egg or Not To Egg, and The French Toast are Coming with Hennessy Syrup.

A creamy, slightly sweet bowl of grits with a mix of cheddar and parmesan cheese and perfectly tender jumbo shrimp. Unfortunately, I was unable to clean my entire bowl. Do not worry, as soon as I arrived home, the Shrimp & Grit leftovers were devoured in a matter of seconds. THE BEST Shrimp & Grits, I have tried on the West Coast. I even dreamed about the dish a week later. The French Toast was soft and crunchy, plus this dish paired nicely with the Shrimp & Grits.

If you are looking for a get hangout spot for weekend Brunch with family and friends, check out BLAQHAUS in NoHo. Continue to support Black-Owned Businesses. Let the restaurant know that HippieSrirachaGirl referred you.

Stay safe and vigilant,

Double Fudge Chocolate Brownie Cookie

How long can you survive without having a piece of CHOCOLATE?

Do you favor Milk chocolate, White chocolate or Dark chocolate?

I tend to favor dark chocolate because it’s healthier for you, since it contains higher levels of antioxidants and cocoa. The Double Fudge Chocolate Brownie Cookie is a great dessert to make with your family during this time of Covid-19. Using simple ingredients that are probably already in your pantry! Temperature is critical when cooking this dessert in a skillet. Side note: keep the temperature between medium and high heat. It will take a few times before mastering this dessert but once it comes out Ooey Gooey, you won’t be disappointed 🙂
